You're an ordinary nobody who hasn't done anything noteworthy, let alone...a crime. Must be a mistake, but this morning you were arrested. Pack your stuff and leave as fast as possible, but be wary – every move you make is being followed by a Giant Policeman.

Navigate the city and escape in an engaging experience where every problem has multiple solutions. Manipulate relationships, explore the environment, and choose your path: charm your way out, break the law, or outwit your towering pursuer.

But keep on guard. The town and the Giant are watching your every move.

EXPLORE & PLAN

— While exploring potential ways to get to the train station you see the ticket gate.

And in a true immersive-sim manner, there always are a few options to solve every problem that you face.

MANIPULATE RELATIONSHIPS

— Try to give a gift to the cashier, and she might give you a ticket for free.

We refresh the standard immersive-sim formula by making you manage the characters' moods, similar to tamagotchi or sims-like games.

Publisher Critical Reflex and developer Tallboys released a new gameplay trailer for Militsioner and announced that the new open playtest for Militsioner kicks off today on Steam.

Explore a dynamic clockwork town, navigate the colossal policeman’s changing needs and emotions, and use your wits to escape from his watchful eye your own way.

The titular colossal Militsioner demanded that the following information be provided with a few fresh details on what players can expect!

• You’re Always Being Watched - You can run, but you can’t hide from the Militsioner. Everything you do is monitored – from stealing, to vandalism, to being a menace to the local townsfolk.
• Judgment Is Inevitable - There will be moments where you’ll have to decide what kind of person you are – and the town responds accordingly. Maybe you can build goodwill through meaningful conversations and have the townsfolk assist you. Or perhaps you’re more likely to use people as pawns to achieve your goals. Either way, the town always remembers.
• There’s No Such Thing As A Simple Escape - This immersive sim isn’t for the faint of heart. You’ll need to learn the lay of the land, wait until the Militsioner is at his most vulnerable, and put your escape plan into action. But be warned. The consequences of a failed scheme could cost more than you’re willing to pay.

You’ll have to wait a little longer for a concrete release date. But, hey. If Militsioner is nothing else, he’s a patient giant!

OR BREAK THE LAW

— If you want to keep a gift as a backup in case things go south — just break the ticket gate, or sneak into the cashier’s booth at night to steal a ticket.

IF YOU GET CAUGHT, TAKE YOUR CHANCES AT ESCAPING FROM THE GIANT’S HAND

— While breaking into the cashier's booth you made too much noise and woke up the Giant. Now you need to run for your life and seek shelter.

Safe zones are the homes of the various characters in the city. They may choose to help and invite you in, depending on the strength of your relationship with them. Everything comes at a cost, and if relationships are strained, the player will have to find common ground with the sewer inhabitants.

REPEAT UNTIL YOU FIND YOUR WAY OUT

— Sell off any found or stolen goods to give yourselves an edge moving forward.

Key Features:

• Tamagotchi. Every character in the game, including the lawbringer, has a tamagochi-like mood system.
• Dialogue system. Reactive system with free phrase selection.
• Theft. The player can steal items from the streets, rob apartments, and shops.
• Stealth. The Town is constantly watching. If you piss them off, they’re gonna threaten you with the police. But remember, they hate you as much as they hate the Giant.
• Time. Time is the key. Everyone, from cars and trains to people and Giants, has their own life schedules.

Militsioner is coming to PC (Steam).
